Help Your Pets Stay Calm This Christmas & New Year 🎄✨

The festive season is full of excitement for us — but for many dogs and cats, Christmas gatherings and New Year fireworks can be stressful and overwhelming.
If your pet struggles with anxiety, we’re here to help make the holidays a little calmer and a lot more comfortable. ❤️🐾

Our Top Calming Solutions:

🧡 Lick Mats
A great way to keep your pet busy and relaxed. Licking helps release endorphins, promoting natural calm. Perfect for distracting them during noisy moments or busy household activity.

💚 Comfort Bandanas
To be used alongside calming sprays, our bandanas offer a gentle, soothing aroma to help ease anxiety.

💛 Pet Remedy
A natural calming solution suitable for both dogs and cats. Ideal for use during festive visitors, travel, or fireworks.

💙 Calmex
A vet-trusted calming supplement designed to help maintain relaxed behaviour. Great for pets with more pronounced anxiety over the festive period.

⸻

Signs Your Pet May Be Feeling Stressed:
• Hiding or shaking
• Panting or pacing
• Excessive grooming
• Barking, whining, or clinginess
• Loss of appetite

If you notice any of these, it might be time to prepare before the celebrations begin.
